Joshua Watt 59a6a1b5dd rpi-base: Fix wic image kernel dependency
wic images depend on the kernel device trees, and therefore should
depend on virtual/kernel:do_deploy to make sure these are present in the
deploy directory.

Most of the time, this dependency is satisfied indirectly since a rootfs
image will depend on the kernel, but add it explicitly for the cases
where it is not.

meta-raspberrypi

Yocto BSP layer for the Raspberry Pi boards - http://www.raspberrypi.org/.

Documentation Status Matrix

Build server sponsored by balena.io

Description

This is the general hardware specific BSP overlay for the RaspberryPi device.

More information can be found at: http://www.raspberrypi.org/ (Official Site)

The core BSP part of meta-raspberrypi should work with different OpenEmbedded/Yocto distributions and layer stacks, such as:

  • Distro-less (only with OE-Core).
  • Yoe Disto (Video and Camera Products).
  • Yocto/Poky (main focus of testing).

Dependencies

This layer depends on:

  • URI: git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky
    • branch: master
    • revision: HEAD

Quick Start

  1. source poky/oe-init-build-env rpi-build
  2. Add this layer to bblayers.conf and the dependencies above
  3. Set MACHINE in local.conf to one of the supported boards
  4. bitbake core-image-base
  5. Use bmaptool to copy the generated .wic.bz2 file to the SD card
  6. Boot your RPI

Quick Start with kas

  1. Install kas build tool from PyPi (sudo pip3 install kas)
  2. kas build meta-raspberrypi/kas-poky-rpi.yml
  3. Use bmaptool to copy the generated .wic.bz2 file to the SD card
  4. Boot your RPI

To adjust the build configuration with specific options (I2C, SPI, ...), simply add a section as follows:

local_conf_header:
  rpi-specific: |
    ENABLE_I2C = "1"
    RPI_EXTRA_CONFIG = "dtoverlay=pi3-disable-bt"

To configure the machine, you have to update the machine variable. And the same for the distro.

You can send patches using the GitHub pull request process or/and through the Yocto mailing list. Refer to the documentation for more information.
